What is the principle and characteristic of reciprocating grate boiler?

15 Jul 2022

Boiler is a kind of energy equipment commonly used in industrial production, which is widely used in many industries, such as food, chemical industry, paper making, rubber, hospital and so on. Reciprocating grate boiler is also a kind of boiler product that is widely used. Considering that many users are unfamiliar with it, here, ZOZEN Boiler will explain the principle of lower reciprocating grate boiler and common furnace types.

 

The principle of reciprocating grate boiler

The principle of reciprocating grate boiler is that the fuel is transported (lifted) by the feeder to the bunker in front of the furnace, falls into the screw feeder mechanism and is pushed onto the grate. Through the reciprocating movement of the grate, the fuel slowly enters the furnace from front to back, and then moves gradually. When the reciprocating grate reciprocates, it can push the fuel forward, and at the same time, it can flip the fuel, which is conducive to the full combustion of the fuel.

 

Characteristics of reciprocating grate boiler

ZOZEN Boiler has been designing and manufacturing chain boilers since its establishment, and has in-depth research and rich project experience on the principle of reciprocating grate boilers. The product technology is mature, and many research results have been obtained. The innovative and optimized ZOZEN reciprocating grate boiler has the following advantages:

1) The principle of reciprocating grate boiler determines that the boiler is especially suitable for biomass bulk materials and inferior coal, which can not only achieve the goal of stable combustion, but also successfully achieve the design parameters;

2) Fuel burns more fully, and the thermal efficiency of ZOZEN biomass reciprocating grate boiler is as high as over 88%;

3) The grate of reciprocating grate boiler has the characteristics of simple structure, convenient manufacture, low metal consumption and good smoke and dust removal effect;

4) Take many measures to effectively avoid boiler dust and coking, so as to achieve strong continuous operation capability;

5) ZOZEN biomass reciprocating grate boiler solves the problem of high and low temperature corrosion caused by biomass such as straw, and greatly prolongs the service life of the equipment;

5) ZOZEN reciprocating grate boiler has good dynamic response capability, convenient start-up and fast load lifting rate;

6) Advanced control system, with high automation of fuel supply, ash discharging and slag discharging.

 

The above is a systematic introduction to the principle of reciprocating grate boiler. If you are interested in ZOZEN reciprocating grate boiler, please consult online.
